i made a pdf of an order form into a fillable form, but now it autofills all fields, how do i prevent that?

Looks like a nice script, Gilad. Thanks!

Kudos to you for doing this for a form you use regularly. Once you get this corrected, it will save you a lot of work! That's smart thinking.

It sounds like the electronic form wasn't created correctly.

These would be the basic steps to take:

1. Open the original non-fillable form in Acrobat.
2. Run the form tool. it will put you in form creation mode as well as try to identify the different fields in the form.
3. Delete any fields that it got wrong (sometimes it reads lines as a field when they're really just decorative).
4. Add any new fields that it missed.
5. Be sure that you do not fill in any information at this point; it will cause problems like what you're experiencing. When you're
6. Save the form and exit out of Forms Editing mode.

Then open the form and fill it in, and it should work.

How do I make it work so that each row of fields can be different?

This is a more advanced procedure. I think the problem is that the rows and columns of cells have conflicting names, rather than unique ones. Every individual form field must have a unique name. If 2 or more fields have the same name, then the same data will populate them.

In your example here is what the cell names in that part of the form should be:

For the cells in row 1:

     style00  color00  quantity00

For the cells in row 2:

     style01  color01  quantity01

You get the idea. Note that the first row is 00, the second is 01, third is 02, etc. I know. Chaulk it up to computer geekiness!

For now, go back to your form and open up the forms editing tool. Scan down the left side where your form fields are listed. Check the names. Rename any that might be incorrect (you can do it right there in the panel, just double-click on the name to edit it).

Then close out of Form Editing mode, save it, and try the form again.

Let us know how this works out!
